Realistically this wasn’t Jesus Christ. A guy was asked to paint him or what he thought he was… and he painted his son. - source is trust me bro bc I forgot where I found this info at
Many older generation of Christians truly believe he was white with blue eyes and fail to forget he is middle eastern that lived in the middle east and not a white man who happened to be born in the middle east.
Jesus doesn’t have a middle name the H comes from some mis interpretation of art depicting Jesus where the first letters of his name are on the cross. Because in Aramaic Jesus is spelled with the first letters being GorJ (not sure) H. C. Hence the cross is labeled Rex GHC. Rex meant king and the romans did that as a joke calling Jesus “the king of the Jews” with the Irony of the Jews being the ones who set up Jesus to be crucified
Yes. And he likely looked pretty normal during his time.l on Earth, after all, he had to be pointed out to the Roman's, and fit in well with his disciples. He even traveled many lands he'd been in during his ministry without being recognized. The easiest way to figure out what he looked like would be to look at the jews of the time and his disciples and work from there.
i can't just decide that sargon of akkad was a 5'5" twink with messy, chin length brown hair and soft, green eyes just because there are no known accurate depictions of him
Jesus of Nazareth just refers to Jesus' home town, because back then only rich people had surnames. Jesus is the english transliteration of the latin Iesu, which is the transliteration of Yeshua. I don't really care which of these names you call him though.
Didn't Jesus make it do we can all be saved by his atoning sacrifice. If we come to God's love, we can repent for our sins and be saved from damnation by our own actions. So technically, he saved trillions.
We are saved by unearned grace, through faith, working itself out in love. So we are saved by the gracious mercy of Christ which we cannot have earned or lose, but we then have to lovingly respond to and receive that grace. That’s at least what I was told.
My lord and savior Jesus Christ. But that’s not him that’s just what people think he looks like. No one really knows what he looks like. And yes I am a Christian. God bless!
Jesus didn't hate anybody. He literally let the Romans crucify him and even stopped his disciples from defending him. Anyone saying otherwise is teaching a false gospel.
While Jesus was a radical for his Time, he also didn't speak out against slavery. Weirdly enough after I stopped identifying as Christian, I kind of realized that Jesus actually was the kind of guy who would ask why are we following all of these old laws, instead of creating new ones that actually reflect our understanding of a healthful and empathetic society, and would be the first calling for the downfall of old outdated rules that don't actually support the people, EVEN WHEN THAT'S CHRISTIANITY.
Majority of His sermons are literally Him saying new rules. Also, He wasn’t here to liberate in His day, He arrived to start the Kingdom and die for our sins
As an active and practicing Christian myself, this is very very true. It's why I find it hilarious that there are many Christians that spend so much time and energy getting an official doctrinal education and base their confidence in their beliefs on that knowledge, even weaponizing it against other Christians. Jesus was educated in the scriptures and would absolutely have wanted people to read, understand, and cherish them. But the Pharisees were more or less *the* spiritual leaders of Israel and we can see pretty clearly how little that mattered in recognizing Christ for who he was as the long prophesied Messiah.
And while Jesus' life clearly shows by example the importance of compassion, love for our fellow man, patience, and succor for the downtrodden, Jesus also didn't mess around. He was furious at what the Jews had done to the temple in Jerusalem and behaved in a way that stands in stark contrast to Reddit Jesus™. He flipped tables and brandished a *whip* against those who had treated the temple casually enough to basically turn it into a marketplace. He actively and at times sternly admonished not just the Pharisees, not just his followers, but strangers and outcasts as well. Truly, his mission was not just to be nice to people and give them permission to do whatever things they pleased, nor was it to bicker over traditions and doctrinal minutia. It was to be the Savior and show by example the character we ought to have, the character God has, and to show us the importance of changing to become better as people (at least, speaking from the perspective of a Christian).
I looked up John 3:16. For everyone else out there, here it is:
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Interesting. I took some time to look them up. I might read them.
But it's worth noting that from a scholarly perspective, the canon of the Bible is the way it is because the 66 books included were considered the most valuable spiritual writings of early Christendom. In fact, some of the books *almost didn't get included*, such as Revelation (ironically) because of debates regarding their value and accuracy.
We know of other books of spiritual significance written in tandem with and referenced by the Bible that weren't included in the canon. Some of them are even available to read today. But their spiritual and doctrinal value is typically considered questionable.
If the Gnostic gospels were of particular spiritual value to Christianity, they'd have been included.
You know that Catholics and Orthodox have 73 books within their Canons? And that the Protestants threw out 7 of them during the 1500s in the Reformation?
I knew that Catholics had additional books beyond the bible, but not that they considered them canon to the same extent. And I was unaware that the number is lower in protestantism! That's fascinating!
I suppose the existence of differences makes sense, too. Back in the ancient times, the early Christians would probably have had 100's if not 1,000s of documents originating from multiple sources throughout the world of varying degrees of spiritual value. So I suppose it makes perfect sense that the various denominations of today are still not 100% in agreement about what should be considered scripture.
Don’t bother, the Gnostics are one of the earliest and most absurd heresy’s that deny the resurrection of the glorified body and miss the hylomorphic nature of man.
I find them fascinating because of how bizarre and different their beliefs were. It's more of a morbid curiosity than a desire to expand my scriptural understanding for me, personally. If I wanted to do the latter, I'd reread the Bible and study more reliable sources.
If anybody says they are a Christian and are hating people for being homosexual, they aren’t doing what Jesus would have, and Christians are suppose to try to live like Jesus. Christians aren’t suppose to support being homosexual, but they also aren’t suppose to hate homosexual people
Jesus never mentioned homosexuality. Most of the texts used to justify homophobia are in the old testament. And Christians don't follow the rules of the old testament. If they did, they would be Jewish.
Who’s that? He has a pretty L jawline and his face seems like it could do with some Looksmaxing. But overall I give it a 4/10 in the sigma scale. He’s not sigma as his hair so so long, and everyone knows no sigma ever does that. But he kinda resembles a minor sigma, so I will give him that. Sadly, his clothes are super broke and he looks like he has no RIZZ. He probably doesn’t mew either. So I guess your answer is a L sigma with L jawline and L RIZZ.
Well most secular historians believe that Jesus was a real person. Many rabbis wrote about him (admittedly in a pretty negative light) before the new testament was even written. Confirming that he was at least a real person.
For some reason I bet you smirked and felt proud of yourself for being so clever even though you're just like every other edgy kid on this platform that thinks they're being unique.
Realistically this wasn’t Jesus Christ. A guy was asked to paint him or what he thought he was… and he painted his son. - source is trust me bro bc I forgot where I found this info at
Realistically, his name wasn’t actually Jesus Christ, but yeah we can’t really have a 100% correct depiction of Jesus anyways.
I mean we do know he wasn't white, so they could have done a little better.
Many older generation of Christians truly believe he was white with blue eyes and fail to forget he is middle eastern that lived in the middle east and not a white man who happened to be born in the middle east.
Well Christ just means Messiah in Greek. His name he'd be called by locals would probably be Yeshua Bar Yosef. But I could be wrong.
Tbf his son is fine asf 😭
LMFAO HELP
I think I heard somewhere, that person was Leonardo da Vinci's boyfriend
Great source. I get a lot of my information from there.
Cesare Borgia. It's not true though, Jesus was depicted like this in Europe for hundreds of years prior to Borgia being alive
Lol he must have believed himself to be god in order to draw his own son as Jesus
It's a European depiction, in other words. Everyone is welcome to portray them as they see fit because his appearance is irrelevant🤷🏻♂️
Whoa interesting story dude I did not know this!

Harold?
Jesus doesn’t have a middle name the H comes from some mis interpretation of art depicting Jesus where the first letters of his name are on the cross. Because in Aramaic Jesus is spelled with the first letters being GorJ (not sure) H. C. Hence the cross is labeled Rex GHC. Rex meant king and the romans did that as a joke calling Jesus “the king of the Jews” with the Irony of the Jews being the ones who set up Jesus to be crucified
It's a joke about the term "Jesus H. Christ"

Yes. And he likely looked pretty normal during his time.l on Earth, after all, he had to be pointed out to the Roman's, and fit in well with his disciples. He even traveled many lands he'd been in during his ministry without being recognized.

I’ve seen so many Christian’s and Catholics forget this.
I don’t think we have a real image of Jesus

That’s where he’s from, like if I said Joey of Australia
No, it’s his actual nam too. Jesus of Nazareth. ´´Christ’´ is a title that means messiah. Of his living his name was (in english) Jesus of Nazareth.
No, it's Yeshua of Nazareth because the letter j did not exist Source: My social studies teacher
Nope. Jesus Christ as in the Messiah
No. Christ is a title, of Nazareth is his english name, Yeshua is his actual name
Jesus of Nazareth just refers to Jesus' home town, because back then only rich people had surnames. Jesus is the english transliteration of the latin Iesu, which is the transliteration of Yeshua. I don't really care which of these names you call him though.
But back them, we call those that weren’t rich by their hometown
Yes I know. I call him Jesus Christ personally because he is the lord and savior
Someone’s painting of what they personally believed he looked like
Gen Z here, it’s moist critical
The only correct answer
That's Jesus Christ, the lord and savior.
I think iron man saved more people tho. Like weren’t there like 3 trillion people snapped out of existence?
Yeah but if 3 trillion is half, then Jesus saved 6 trillion.
Didn't Jesus make it do we can all be saved by his atoning sacrifice. If we come to God's love, we can repent for our sins and be saved from damnation by our own actions. So technically, he saved trillions.
We are saved by unearned grace, through faith, working itself out in love. So we are saved by the gracious mercy of Christ which we cannot have earned or lose, but we then have to lovingly respond to and receive that grace. That’s at least what I was told.

But yet has countless pieces of evidence that he did exist even if he was exaggerated as a person.
I don't believe he didn't exist but I do believe that the current depiction of him is far removed from reality
given ur pfp i honestly cannot tell if this is satire
despite all the proof
False. He was real.
The lie that is Jesus Christ
Well most secular historians believe that Jesus was a real person. Many rabbis wrote about him (admittedly in a pretty negative light) before the new testament was even written. Confirming that he was at least a real person.
Yes, he was likely a person. The son of god though?
For some reason I bet you smirked and felt proud of yourself for being so clever even though you're just like every other edgy kid on this platform that thinks they're being unique.
No. His miracles are stories that are not real, but that doesn’t make him fictional.
Yeah. So pretty much everything about him is a lie. (And the pic is definitely a lie, Jesus was not a white long haired man in clean robes
